One double whiskey and some codeine, please.
This post is brought to you by codeine.
I will not say that this is the worst cold I have ever had, because that is just an exaggeration, but I think it is correct to say that it is the worst cold I have had in a while. If my memory serves me right, at this point, I think it started last Friday (over a week agao) and it is still having its way with my body and mind.
I have a few drafts that are kind of finished, but I am not focused enough to check them for errors before publishing them; needless to say, just ignore possible errors in this post. So it might be few days until I will post a new article for you all to read; which means some of them will be kind of “old” when they are published.
That I am able to write this whole post will be explained in a bit.
The worst part with this cold is that it has made me into a complete hermit; worse than I already am. I just want to be alone a wallow in my own malaise and self-pity. All that I seem to have energy for is to feed myself now and then, and play old games in DOSBox.
Lizzie, with good intentions, dragged me out yesterday so I could be around people— fools, they are fools! —and get some fresh air and sunlight. It was nice tho. I also learned, without specifying how, that it is best to avoid driving when having a cold as it is equal to having a glass of double whiskey before driving.
The reason I actually managed to write all this is because I folded and bought some cold-remedy [a cure for the common cold does still not exist] medicine today and it is actually working a lot better than I anticipated. My sinus’ doesn’t hurt anymore and thanks to the codeine [18mg per dose] I am more blasé about being sick.
You will know soon enough when I fell well enough to start writing and publishing articles again.
All I have energy for, in regards to publishing text, is Twitter.
